Do you feel connected?

After suggesting the Engineer ask his new boss these three questions, he tells me, “I think I’ve had over 20 different leaders in my career and only one has ever volunteered an answer these three questions. And it’s the organization I felt most connected in.”

Unfortunately, this is all too common inside organizations today. We expect employees to connect the dots themselves between their work, their teammates, and the organization’s mission.

But it’s each individual leader’s responsibility to make explicitly clear the answer to each of these questions.

Because knowing the answers to these three questions makes you feel connected to your work, your team, and your organization.
